BRIEF:
712 Miles in 55 Days: Walking for "The California 12"

Between April and June, Professor Justin Brooks and attorneys Alissa Bjerkhoel and Michael Semanchik walked more than 700 miles from San Diego to Sacramento. The goal of the Innocence March is to protest the incarceration of 12 men and women who remain in prison despite compelling evidence of innocence.

Members of the California Western community, exonerees and their families, and supporters of the cause of justice joined the marchers along the route, culminating in a rally at the State Capitol and the delivery of clemency petitions for "The California 12" to representatives of Governor Jerry Brown.
